NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — After nearly three decades off-Broadway, “Stomp” will be ending its run in January, the show announced Tuesday.
The wordless performance has been combining percussion, music and comedy with repurposed items like brooms and garbage can lids since 1994.
Jan. 8 will be Stomp’s last New York performance though the show’s North American and European tours will continue to run.
“We are so proud that the East Village and the Orpheum Theatre has been Stomp’s home for so many wonderful years and want to thank our producers and our amazing cast, crew and front-of-house staff, all of whom have worked so hard for so long to make the show such a success,” producers said in a statement. “They have always given 100 percent to every audience, from the very beginning in 1994 to the post-lockdown audiences of 2022. We want to thank everyone involved for such an incredible New York run.”
Declining ticket sales were cited as the reason for the show’s closure. Other long-running performances also recently announced their New York end, including “Come From Away” and “Phantom if the Opera,” due to low ticket sales.
The show will have ran 11, 472 regular performances and 13 previews by the time it closes.
